What was your first car?

[PaulDash]

This, a white on black 1986 Porsche 944 NA.



As I knew nothing about buying cars, I had to get an engine rebuild after 200 kilometers of ownership!

My younger brother's 1st car was a 1967 Cougar with a big hole in the passenger front floor board. My Dad liked them so that's what he bought. If you hit a puddle while driving water would splash the driver a little & front passenger ALOT. My brother soon found floor mats heavy enough to prevent much water intrusion. I think my dad paid $700 for it.

1970 Chevy No-va, two door death coupe.
Cherry bomb exhaust, air shocks and flat black paint. 1600$ in 1986. Wish I had a pic.
Wrapped it around a tree. Battery passed through the rad. Rear drivers side wheel left the seen. Passenger door fell off. They had to pull it from the side to get it out from around the tree. The front end was actually at a 90 degree angle to the rear. All remaining wheels jammed up into the wheel wells. My chest put the steering wheel into the dash.
Needless to say it didn't buff out

My first was a 72 Nova, 350 w barrel. Bought it in 78 for 500.00. The first choice was a was a 72 GTO Judge for an even grand. My dad would not let me buy it as a 16 year old. I might not be posting today if he had said yes. A few years later I was driving him down the autobahn in a V12 Jag at three times the US speed limit. He was in the back seat and my Mom was in the front seat with her eyes closed. We thought she was asleep.

Guessing you mean 71 Judge since that's the last year it was made. 69,70,& 71

I tried to buy a 69 Judge converible for years, one of 108 made that 1st year. Also 2 hard tops a couple miles from where I lived 25 years ago. Owners wouldn't sell until they are rusting away!
